Police say a school bus and a commuter bus crashed in Baltimore, killing six people and injuring ten others.
Baltimore Police tweeted that no children were aboard the school bus that crashed early Tuesday morning and Baltimore public schools spokeswoman Anne Fullerton says no students are among the fatalities.
Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith told a news conference the school bus rear ended a car Tuesday morning, then struck a pillar at a cemetery and veered into oncoming traffic, hitting the Maryland Transit Administration bus on the driver’s side.
Smith says the school bus driver is dead. He says the only other person on that bus was an aide, who survived.
Authorities said there were 10 people with varying degrees of injuries; approximately 13 passengers were on the MTA bus.
University of Maryland Medical Center spokeswoman Lisa Clough says the hospital received one patient in critical condition and four others in fair condition.
Video from above the scene while it was still dark shows the crumpled front of a yellow school bus smashed into the side of a Maryland Transit Administration bus. The driver’s side of the MTA bus is ripped off with debris spilling onto the road.
CBS Baltimore reports the collision between the vehicles happened on the western area of the city near Frederick at S. Monastery avenues just before the morning rush hour.
